ESPN’s Jemele Hill discussed the endorsement struggles of black tennis star Serena Williams with MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry.

There is quite the conflict starting to brew right now between the racist, pro-victim mentality “Black Lives Matters” movement and black people who have shirked the victim mentality and achieved things in their lives. Specifically, black athletes.

As a player, Ray Lewis was extremely well known for delivering jarring shots that immediately stopped the forward movement of opposing players. As a media member, now he’s taking shots at the very core of opposition movements.

One of television’s most sacred and central responsibilities is making sure they only display images that are “right and appropriate” for the viewing public to consume. Yet, judging by NBC’s decision to not show the post-game prayer gathering of players on the field after the Patriots’ 28-21 victory over the Steelers in the Thursday night Kickoff Special, NBC clearly believes public displays of…

In his zeal to smear the NYPD, ESPN writer JA Adande made an analogy on Twitter comparing the football players in San Antonio who assaulted a referee on the field to a case of mistaken identity involving the NYPD and a former tennis star named James Blake.

Because apparently even deflated footballs are racist, New York Jets wide receiver Brandon Marshall says that there are many NFL players who believe Tom Brady’s four-game Deflategate suspension was overturned because of race. “White players, specifically at the quarterback position, are treated differently,” the five-time Pro Bowler said.

Donald Trump has been likened to (among others) Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon, George Wallace, Morton Downey Jr., and Nickelback, the band. “Nickelback” is also a football term, which brings us to yet another Trump comparison: Dave Zirin believes that the Washington Redskins franchise “is becoming the sports equivalent of the Donald Trump presidential run, a dead-ender operation with nothing to…

Tom Brady gave a Boston radio station the reasons why he is fond of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump.

In a sports world full of hot takes, liberal and noted anti-football writer Steve Almond went full supernova. Earlier this week on NPR in a bout of liberal lunacy that I could not have concocted if I had summoned all of my lib-mocking powers (and they are quite formidable), Steve Almond made the case that it was football that killed Michael Brown and Eric Garner. No, really.

Former NFL football player Lamar Lathon is lying about what transpired between himself and a Texas cop during a traffic stop. The 9-year veteran of both the Houston Oilers and Carolina Panthers was pulled over by a Pearland (Houston area) police officer at 1:15 am on September 1st for going 65 mph in a 50 mph zone. Lathon was contentious and uncooperative throughout, which resulted in the officer…

In a move that will most certainly result in the purge of the ESPN films department, the “4-letter network” will air a...wait for it...positive feature on President George W. Bush’s throwing of the first pitch in Game 3 of the World Series in the weeks following 9/11.

ESPN suspended Curt Schilling from the Little League World Series for his tweet comparing the number of extremists in Islam today to the number of Nazis in Germany in the 1940s. Now ESPN has suspended Curt Schilling for the rest of the Major League Baseball regular season and the Wild Card game the “4-letter network” is scheduled to host, for defending himself over that tweet.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was known as “Cap” in his playing days. A somewhat understated 3-letter word to describe the league’s all-time leading scorer and one of the largest men to ever roam the NBA hardwood. However, in a Donald Trump administration --should there be a Donald Trump administration-- Kareem will probably be referred to with four-letter words only.

Curt Schilling took his suspension from ESPN last week for a tweet that compared the number of Muslim extremists to the number of German extremists in Nazi Germany. However, he’s not taking it lying down
